As cold fronts approach Cape Town many animals are affected by the winter weather and seek shelter from the elements with little to no hope of finding shelter.
Our dedicated Horse Care Unit offers assistance to all large animals and equines in need - with your help we have helped numerous donkeys in peril and thank you for keeping them in your hearts.
Because of you we have been fortunate to renovate an old stable into a Critical Horse Care Unit that allows us to offer more advanced treatment to equines in need. To date we have a built a new operating theatre and installed a horse sling enabling us to support larger animals during treatment. We do still need to purchase an equine operating table but are confident we can do this with your help.
Many of these animals are brought to us as victims of motor car accidents, neglect or blatant cruelty- they require substantial nutrition and medical care to bring them back from the brink and this places an extreme burden on our limited resources.
We will not give up despite the challenges we face; every donkey that comes into our care will be given as much love and support that we can muster.
We recenty welcomed Jack to our farmyard - Jack like so many others was just another nameless stray found on a cold, wet street alone and uncared for - luckily a concerned passer-by knew to call our Horse Care Unit. Now Jack is now enjoying all the attention and care that he deserves. Jack is warm in his very own stable and will be protected from the winter chill thanks to the kindness of people just like you.
With your continued help we can look after Jack and make sure he has a chance at finding his forever home.
There are so many other donkeys just like Jack who need our love and care.
Thank you for giving them a chance at life.
